It has come to my attention that, although I desperately hate to admit it, we have too many cats. It's time to thin the herd. I've created lovely little posters for the barn cats and for Chester, Curly, and Bitsy. Cute as they are, they are the brattiest cats in the crew (excluding Sasha, but she's favored by the darling daughter, lucky cat). Posters are going in selected locations tomorrow. I hope the cats move on quickly.
What prompted this? I can't keep those three off my piano. Today I was cleaning the blanket of dust off of it, and I found cat scratches on my grand piano. Kiss of death for cats.
If the barn cats aren't relocated by the first of the year, I have to put them down. The remaining house cats will have to be altered and immunized so they can go out. I can't afford to do the entire neighborhood's cats. They'll just slip away into the night. Very sad. I like those cats, wild as they are.
Oh, that's Baby Kitty playing Peek-A-Boo. He ain't goin' nowhere.

Awwww, I'm sorry that you have to part with some of your kitties. I'm glad the one in the photo is staying. Such a cutie!
Sorry you have to part with some of your kitties, but sometimes there is too much of a good thing.
Baby Kitty is so cute.
I'm so motivated at relocating cats that I've put up a whole ONE poster advertising the barn cats. Curly, the rather independent and stand-offish ugly cat, seems to have sensed his doom. He's been crawling in my lap and purring today. This is something Curly just does not do!
Hubby suggested I order a cover for the piano rather than continue using a tablecloth. A nice, thick, kitty-resistant, quilted mackintosh cover is on its way.
While Hubby suggests that we could relocate Baby Kitty, I gently informed him that, if Baby Kitty goes, so would the wife and kid.
Boy, did that ever prompt a look!
